Thanks again jollyrog for your feedback.
Part of the reason for emailing them was not just for reassurance, but also because there doesn't seem to be some published procedure for applying for a UK PPL? The lady I spoke to on the phone said the only way to find out would be to write in. The entry for the UK PPL(A) in CAP804 also seems to have been deleted (Section 5 Part B Subpart 1 Page 1 "intentionally left blank")?
